I fostered a windhound like this one for awhile, they are perfect dogs, smart and affectionate. I also love that they are absolute dopes that also boast the esteem and majesty of a unicorn
Your Silken pup looks really pretty, and like a great prospect. Your borzoi is really pretty too. Good luck with both! Thank you for the video, I enjoyed it SOOO much. Remembering puppies!!!
@@Bioeliful153 silkens don't bark more than whippets, it's about the same. but they do shed more than whippets. if you want other pets in the house, i'd say go for the silken because they're friendlier. they're very similar in general, so it's up to personal preference.

Shiruki cat Silken Windhounds are a breed that was developed by combining Borzoi, Whippets, and whippet/sheltie lurchers. They're smaller than borzoi, have coats that are less dense (though still long), are more active, easier to train, and a little more demanding than borzoi.

Perfect description!
Been following you guys Obie’s whole life… and now have 2 silkens of my own. ❤
Frickin' adorable. I hope he's doing okay after all these years :) :)

LOVE this video!!! Looking to add a silken to our pack. Thanks for sharing this!
love your video and Obie, Ashley
Silken pups are the best
You're going to look back at this video in ten years and be so glad you made it. Made me want to drive home and give my dogs a hug. :)
Naaww Bandit ~! Eye am Whippet and eye aproof of dis video! 🐎 - Quarterpoundhound
I have one that looks pretty similar to this one! Except it’s a female. Her name is Skadi.
This is soooo cute! I almost started crying, it's too sweet for me! 😭😍😊💞
Sweet baby, i want one so bad
He's gorgeous! We added a Silken to our family last week. :)
the goodest boy :')
ADORABLE
AWWWWWWWWWWWWWW WHAT A BABYYYYYYY!!
NOW I WANT ONE! :(
Don't get a dog because it's a cute baby. Do your research.
Wait ‘til you start getting vet bills…that’ll excite you.
😂 I mean. Maybe look at when this video was posted. This dog is turning 9 this year. Vet bills happen. Pet insurance is a thing too!
Beautiful pup! Is it a "windhound" or a "windsprite"?
Alex Pangilinan thank you! He’s a Silken Windhound (emphasis on the Hound haha). Windsprites are a different breed 😊
Congrats, What breeder did you get Obie from?
He's from CSB Silkens. You can find them on Facebook at "Silken Agents of CSBeck"
So cool! They’re a like a small borzoi. How much does Obie weigh?
Ranfe's Ortiz at 2.5 years old now he weighs 30lbs 😁
Your dog is wonderful!
silkens dont shed much :)
@@snwia9i281 the same as whippets? Or a little bit more.
Do they bark more than whippets?

how old is the pup?
He is 4 years old now but at the time of this video, he was 5 months old :)
How much does your dog shed
A few hairs here and there. It takes some effort to fill up a hair brush. He doesn’t have undercoat, so that helps!
I have been considering to get a Silken Windhound someday. But it would have to wait till I move and get a pit bull pup first!!!
Does he shed much fur?
Not much at all! Just a little strand here and there.
+Ashley Siemon (Cricks) really? I thought they'd shed a load! Thank you very much for the info ☺
um.. i've never heard of a silken windhound, whats the difference with that and the borzoi?

Are silkens as lazy as greyhounds
Not quite. They are pretty lazy as adults but greyhounds win in that regard 😅
